Jimmy Butler is a perfect example of just how extreme these dissolutions can become. Not only is he fresh off a contentious exit from the Miami Heat, but his Golden State Warriors are duking it out in the Western Conference semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the team he openly forced his way off back in 2018.

Things couldn’t be more different for Butler now as he’s thriving with the Warriors, after a rough ending in Miami. Butler delivered an efficient, composed showing, scoring 27 points on 7-of-12 shooting (58.3%). He also hit 1-of-2 from deep, finishing at 50% from three.
